PlayStation 4 Review: ‘Minecraft: Story Mode – Episode 4: A Block and a Hard Place’
Minecraft's "Block and a Hard Place" features significantly more puzzle solving, but Episode 4 is one TellTale's poorest examples of "interactive storytelling" yet.

'Just Cause 3' is definitely an upgrade, but it comes at an expense. All of the new toys don't mean a thing if you don't have a time or a place to use them.
Read More »PlayStation 4 Review: ‘Minecraft: Story Mode – Episode 3: The Last Place You Look’
'Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 3: The Last Place You Look' is surprisingly more action-oriented than its predecessor, but the series is still best suited for 10- and 12-year-olds. The rest of us will have to see which series Telltale Games will continue next.

This is a surprisingly accessible and well-executed Japanese role playing game. However, longtime veterans of JRPGs may find the narrative and overall game framework unremarkable compared to more niche titles in the genre.

While Polarized is arguably the weakest of the five episodes, Dontnod's indie-film approach to adventure games is commendable. If you try only one new game franchise this year, make sure it's Life is Strange. The title redefines narrative in modern gaming.
